Two months have passed since our Dear friend Andrea sleeps in death. Her absence has left an empty space in our lives. She had a VERY attractive personality. Her quiet smile remains in my mind, as if I’ve just seen her a few minutes ago. Undoubtedly, her departure took us by surprise, but we look forward to seeing her VERY soon, when this system of things is gone forever. It will certainly happen; we have the sure hope from the One that cannot lie: Our Heavenly Father Jehovah.
